Colts sign HB Alvester Alexander, put Scott Lutrus on IR

Because of minor injuries to HBs Mewelde Moore and Vick Ballard, the Colts have filled the empty roster spot that opened when ILB Scott Lutrus went on IR with HB Alvester Alexander (5103/209/4.39pd).

Alexander is a fast little halfback who is stronger than his size would suggest and has a fine ability to catch the ball. Still, he's not very creative with the ball in his hands and lacks the vision and wiggle to be special. He has some limited kick return experience.

In all likelihood, he is just a camp body; but the team will look at him closely as a practice squad guy and/or injury replacement.
